average white par Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 The first person to post "Abbey Road" will be shot at dawn.... Here's some crackers to get started... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnie Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Not sure I should admit this for fear of being hung from the Bridge by the gonads... but I dont know any of them? To be iconic, surely folk must recognise it regardless of their music taste, or age? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teuchter Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 This is one of my favourites - not particularly iconic, but it looks like they are about to do a bank job ahead of getting nicked by the Sweeney 40 minutes later. On the phone so can’t download, but covers that spring to mind are The Clash’s first album - and London Calling as above, The Specials first LP, Ian Dury New Boots and Panties, Stones Let it Bleed, Bowie Ziggy, Any Beatles studio (except Abbey Road - to avoid execution) The Who Sell Out and Who’s Next (alfresco plshing tastic) There are loads really and probably revealing of age as there are no doubt iconic covers still coming thick and fast - although I am not sure what effect the advent of CDs had on covers.

Teuchter Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Patti Smith inspired an almost equally iconic parody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Riva Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Guid thread this. I have to dispute Sanguine's claim further up when he posted a grotty looking banana and talked it up. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnie Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Id have said (Whats the Story) Morning Glory is more iconic than Definitely Maybe? How about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyboy Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Think What's the story is a better album, but the ? was iconic covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnie Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Morning Glory was a bigger album launching Oasis to a wider audience around the world. If iconic, as far as this thread is concerned, means instantly recognisable album, Id suggest a greater audience for Morning Glory makes it more iconic than Definitely Maybe. Perhaps?

Guest The Beer Baron Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 Definitely Maybe and WTSMG are as good as each other, but WTSMG is definitely more iconic. Perhaps biased but was my first Oasis album and still a go to today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teuchter Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Abbey Road Soviet style. Apparently they were about to perform for some oil rig workers. No idea who they are, but they must have been well known as they have put on the red plank welcome for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
